DAMNABLE in one of the letters rounds near the end.

Isn't it the 28th? If not, kudos on making it into the future and giving me a hint about tomorrow's offerings.

Was it just me, or was Laurie asking for "constants" today?

Not quite sure how that happened.

ALBUMEN for 7 in the same round, which I was quite surprised Susie didn't get. I'd have blown it with EARGASM in the previous round though.

Well played by Bradley under pressure at the end.

Very well played to both today, have to feel a bit sorry for Laurie as he was surely capable of winning a few against easier opponents - to take Bradley almost to a crucial takes some doing.

535 is doable in the 540 6 small round via 107*5.

I only logged on to see how Tom S got on #disappointed

Tom S made the fatal error of checking the wiki before watching All4, hence I didn't watch it, whatever happened, seemed that Laurie was a very competent player, and Brad faced a fair bit of pressure today! Only Monday's and Wednesday's are my days off, so will be the only days I post my results

So was 539 but after 30 secs: (4 + 1) x (9 + 3) x 9 - 1.
In the first numbers if Bradley had swapped the 5 x 2 with the 10 then multiplying by the 2 would have been near the end and I'd say he would have seen the 1 could be added first.
